Roseanne Barr vs. Sarah Palin: Why the TV star could take on the Mama Grizzlies. - By Jessica Grose - Slate Magazine

In October 2009, Roseanne Barr invited readers of her blog to join in a ficticious "ten million bitches march" on Washington, D.C. "[T]hat stripper chick sarah palin thinks she is roguing it up?" Roseanne asked. "Well, wait till all the fat pissed off bitches show up for my speech." Together, she promised, they would tell off the "bankers and insurance ponzi scheming bastards" who are "robbing the women and children of this country blind." Just this past January, Roseanne repeated a more decorous version of her anti-Palin battle cry in an interview with USA Today while she was promoting her new book, Roseannearchy. "I think she's stealing my act, so that pisses me off," Roseanne said of Palin. "And she's not even doing it right. Be for the working people, not against them."
